I will be on and off during the next few days due to...
Windows 10.
Yesterday morning, after a windows update, my computer locked me out. Password no longer working, couldn't access anything.
I spent a good chunk of the day just trying to get back in at no avail.
Finally, today I decided to get into forums and have found that this issue has happened to a LOT of people.
I was able to download necessary reboot programs through my girlfriend's computer to bypass the log in feature and reset a user account.
Problem 1; as a user, I could not do anything as it asked for an administrator password even for downloads. Back to square one.
Problem 2; I lost everything that was on the administrator account that I used before the update.
So this afternoon, I finally bought an administrator password reset program that now enables me to do pretty much all I need.
So I've just downloaded, installed and am presently using a data recovery program to try and get all those files back that are still on the hard disk.
Hopefully, it'll work.
So, today and tomorrow will be spent on trying to save what I can. Oh...even the back up didn't work.
Windows 10. I was bragging that I never had a problem with it.
Until now. And it's a MAJOR one.
Just to let you guys know. : (
